After struggling to get the files transfered off my camcorder onto my new Windows 7 PC, we finally have a video of the completed saw! She starts and idles great, excellent throttle response, runs nice and fat, oiler works.... The rim adapter went on without a hitch! It was snug, but tapped on without an issue at all. That was a relief.

I'll get it in wood on Saturday, unless it's raining.

I agree entirely! Those are giant spikes, much larger than those on mine.

How about I return it to you before the drive ends? I'd love for you to get to run it. Or, would that just be cruel?:)

Cool

Thanks S.S.

My Name is not on that list yet, but it will be before its over. :rock: Last in first out. :laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:
 
So i took advantage of the little one being in the highchair eating her breakfast this morning and tallied the payments i have received this week.
I am happy to say we have officially hit the $2000 mark!!!!

Now that the saw is done and we have a great vid up, I am fully expecting my "electronic payment method" to blow up this week!!!!! If you need to snail mail me a payment, please PM me for my address and it needs to be in the mail monday or tuesday (just in case they are slow with delivery)
 
Here it is. I didn't think the 1/2" chain was cutting like it should. I haven't checked it out yet, but perhpas the rakers just need lowered a little. Also, that 7-pin rim is HUGE. I think it's bigger than a 3/8 9-pin. Teddy, do you know if a 6-pin is made? The .404 chisel chain and a 8-pin rim would likely way outperform this setup. But it's VERY cool to have the option. Besides, 1/2" is what came on the saw new. The important part....she runs perfectly!

That saw is really cool. Not the fastest but what a powerhouse. I hope I win it, I would use it on special occasions like wedding anniversarys, birthdays, holidays, and whenever we had guests/family over.:biggrin:
